Astro Boy

We're blasting off this week with the plucky little robot boy that nobody loved... ASTRO BOY! Based on one of the forebearers of anime, ASTRO BOY got a 2009 animated movie that barely made a ripple at the box office, despsite an absolutely stacked cast. We dig into this forgotten little charmer before talking about two games: the PS2 adaptation of the movie, and the classic 2003 game ASTRO BOY: OMEGA FACTOR, one of the secret best games on the Game Boy Advance. 

Hosted by Steve Guntli, Jennifer "JBan" Bannister, and Justin Wilhelm
